Hagen stifles Windy City as Crushers end slide
Lake Erie Crusher right-hander Steve Hagen threw a two hitless eight inning gem to beat Windy City Thunderbolts 2-0 at Sprenger Stadium. Josh McAdams and Tanner Lubach drove in the runs as the Crushers snapped a three-game skid and improved to 7-9 while Hagen improved to 2-0. The Thundebolts stranded runners and bungled a second inning threat as Hagen avoided hard contact and mixed speeds effectively.
